How to get 1500+ in under 2 weeks
Trust me, it’s easier than you think.
You see, the SAT isn’t just a test. It’s a game. And it’s not designed for overachieving high schoolers—instead, the average population. Even a score of 1000 meets their requirements for college and career readiness. Keeping this in mind, it’s actually simple to score over 1500—you just need to do it right.
Start by taking your first practice test. As others have said, it’s important for measuring your benchmark. However, when you get to the math section, here’s what you do: try using Desmos for EVERY problem. It saves time, and prevents you from studying 90% of SAT Math content. LEARN REGRESSION. This helps for extremely hard math problems. Also, review geometry. While you can’t directly solve these problem types with Desmos, there are only a few topics you need to know: SOH-CAH-TOA, alternate interiors/exteriors, same-side interiors, angles in a triangle & straight line add up to 180 (in the formula sheet I think), and triangle congruencies. Stuff like solving/factoring quadratics is useless because Desmos can do it for you. Ideally, once you master Desmos and the non-Desmos problems, you’ll be scoring 750+ with ease. Also, remember that margin of error DECREASES with a larger sample size.
For the reading section, start with the grammar, since it’s the easiest to improve. There’s a 15-minute video that goes over each SAT grammar rule somewhere on YouTube, so I’d recommend that.
Once you’ve mastered grammar, here’s where it gets tricky: the reading comprehension questions. There is a silver lining, however—you don’t have to be an avid reader since elementary school. You just need to know that each of these questions, much like the math section, is completely objective. There’s only one right answer. And once you train yourself to look for three wrong answers instead of one correct answer, you’ll cruise through Module 1.
Now you’ve arrived at the climax: SAT R&W Module 2. It’s the stuff of nightmares. From vocabulary terms you’ve never seen before to passages more tedious than watching paint dry, it seems almost impossible. And don’t worry, it is. Getting a perfect 800 on the reading section is more luck than anything, and the main focus should be getting over 700. You can compensate this with a higher math score.
Now, my main recommendation for this section is doing as many practice problems as you can. Go to oneprep or the SAT question bank and start solving questions on max difficulty. And don’t make a month-long schedule out of it. Instead, use that motivation to set aside 2-3 hours each day, for a week. It’s what I did. But, make sure you’re invested and focused on what you’re practicing. Absolutely DO NOT study if you’re burnt out. And please refrain from spending money on expensive SAT resources, since the best ones are free online.
To recap, take a practice test to find out your level. Game the math section as much as you can (Desmos is a cheat code!). Once you’re done with that, quickly memorize the grammar rules. Do LOTS of practice problems for reading. Studying vocab is honestly pointless, since there’s no predicting what the SAT will throw at you next.
This post turned out longer than I expected, but I hope this helps somebody!

How do you handle timing? I’m good at math and got high 700s on my latest practice tests, but RW is my killer. I can answer the hard questions right when there is no timer counting down, but the second I sit down to do a practice test I make stupid errors I never would have made before. I have to rush to finish. If I can figure out timing, then I think I could do well on reading (it’s also more or so for the second module).

u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 25 '25
Try hiding the timer. It helped me calm down and answer more questions.
2
u/BuisnessGoose18 1430 Jul 25 '25
I did that, I thought it would help but it actually didn’t. I’ve tried doing timed question bank questions and slowly giving myself less time per question, I think it’s helping slightly.
2
u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 25 '25
Like I mentioned in the post, practice is key. There are certain moments where running out of time is inevitable; in fact, embarassingly, I had to guess on a M1 reading question during the June SAT. But, if you're able to answer the other questions with high accuracy, a few wrong answers won't prevent you from getting 700+.

I have a question primarily regaridng the math section: lately ive been restudying my algebra 1 and 2 concepts since i didnt really get a full grasp on them, but i just finished algebra 1 on khan and began the algebra 2 course, my plan is to master the algebra 2 course in less than a week's time hopefully then do the DSAT math section or should i really just invest more of my math studying time into learning desmos and trig/geometry
1
u/BuisnessGoose18 1430 Jul 30 '25
I think desmos can help a lot, but I think that knowing algebra is a must.

u/Big-Effective533 Aug 17 '25
I've been practicing a lot of RW lately, and what helps me is on questions where it doesnt ask for something overall like the main idea, I start from the sentence that contains what the question is being asked on (ex. Hypothesis questions usually contain hypothesis in last sentence, underlined sentences are self explanatory). After that, if there is a sentence after I read it, if not, I skim quickly a sentence or two back just to gain familiarity. Then I create my own answer in my head and just do POE on the answers. I would recommend watching Penguin SAT prep i think thats the name but he gives good tips. On grammar, usually it takes little time but make sure to immediately cut out the fluff (non-essential info most of the time). just focus on what the answer is based off of. I also answer in this order: Vocab -> Grammar -> Transitions -> Rhetorical Synthesis -> Reading Comp. I am not an expert but I find these tips to have helped me
1
u/BuisnessGoose18 1430 Aug 17 '25
Thanks, I’ve been able to get in the 700s for RW lately (with margin) and just need to focus on consistency. For math I’m in the high 700s, really just need a 770 math and a 730 reading to get the score I want. I’ll check out the guys videos, thanks for the recommendation
1
u/Big-Effective533 Aug 17 '25
yeah for me I'm just trying to get my RW up, I was getting 750s/760s on practice tests but I only managed a 720 from two tests. I haven't done a practice test yet from Bluebook for this SAT so I can't say how I'm doing now, but I definitely feel better at reading comp. Only thing that's holding me back is vocab, which is hardest to study for. If you are getting any grammar, rhetorical synthesis, or transitions wrong you should def try to eliminate that error, especially if it's grammar bc it's so much easier than everyone says it is
1
u/BuisnessGoose18 1430 Aug 18 '25
Great thanks! I agree vocab is so hard to study because you can’t predict it, it’s mainly reading comprehension for me.
1
u/Big-Effective533 Aug 18 '25
of course good luck if ur taking august or any other tests
1
u/BuisnessGoose18 1430 Aug 18 '25
Hopefully just August: I’m thinking I’ll get in the 1400s, but if I get in the 1500s then my dad might buy me a used gaming console since my other is so old.

u/Snoo_72544 1400 Jul 25 '25
how do i desmos those harder mm2 problems at the end though?? like the last 5 on math module 2 really seems impossible to desmos most of the time

u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 25 '25
Can you send me one of those hard problems?

u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 25 '25
Interesting, I've never had the same experience. As for time management, solve every algebra problem with Desmos. Questions asking about multiple unknown variables/constants can be solved with regression, along with questions involving a table of values. Did you feel this way on practice tests as well?
2
u/Snoo_72544 1400 Jul 25 '25
Yeah I'll get some of the hardest problems from my practice tests
I was so stumped on this and spent 10 minutes just to guess, can I answer this with desmos and without additional knowledge
3
u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 25 '25 edited Jul 25 '25
There is a way, but you have to know what you're doing and have a good understanding of the problem. B here is a constant and only ONE value of B works. You input every answer choice into Desmos, one at a time, and find where the parabolas EXACTLY match.
I'm attaching a link for reference: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/sbaplgvboo

u/Snoo_72544 1400 Jul 25 '25
So basically you have to know the concept lol 😭
I’m grinding college panda rn to understand
1
u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 25 '25
The link was faulty, sorry about that! I edited the previous comment. Basically, we get the 3x+7 because 7*2 is 14 and 3*1 is 3. You make B a slider with step size 1 since the problem said it was an integer.

u/Snoo_72544 1400 Jul 25 '25
I'm about to learn regression, but I feel like it doesn't help for every time of question
1
Jul 26 '25
It’s a math section, you have to know and understand math. You cannot visual calculator your way through the second part. You need to spend time understanding the math concepts that you struggle with the most that appear on the exam. Spend the most time on that until you get good at it, and then more on to topics that aren’t as difficult for you to understand or topics that you already have some idea on.

Ah yes, the simplicity of scoring in the top 1% of the country.
🙄

u/TopLegitimate2825 1540 Jul 25 '25
not hard when you realize that a large percent of that 99% doesn’t care about the sat, hence the 1000 median score
2
u/EmploymentNegative59 Jul 25 '25
You literally scored 1400 and are saying it’s not hard to score 1500+?

u/TopLegitimate2825 1540 Jul 25 '25
It’s really not
I took that exam in may as a sophomore, and I’m at a 1500 rn lol
And I slacked off like crazy and did fuck all in algebra class

u/EmploymentNegative59 Jul 25 '25
Awesome. Congrats if you actually did get a 1500. But I suppose that means on practice tests. Feel free to change your flair when you get that 1500 for real.

u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 25 '25
Is math as easy as you say with desmos? I am an idiot who hasn't even taken precalc, is it still possible to do well?
9
u/TopLegitimate2825 1540 Jul 25 '25
i’m a rising junior that hasn’t taken pre calc and i got a 750 math on a recent practice test
There’s no actual pre calc on the test, unit circle does help but it’s not absolutely necessary for certain trig

u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 25 '25
I thought the test went up to calculus? And how do I learn it to do that well?
6
u/TopLegitimate2825 1540 Jul 25 '25
there’s absolutely no calc on the sat, the average high schooler doesn’t actually take calculus in the US, and the SAT is geared towards juniors

u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 25 '25
Are you sure? And also does that mean I am an auto reject by colleges if I can't get 700+?
2
u/Kooky-Task-7582 Jul 26 '25
Depends on the college, instate ones aren't as picky
1
u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 26 '25
For engineering though?
2
u/Randomxthoughts Jul 31 '25
I mean, what colleges are you looking at? I'm pretty sure they'll have on their websites whether they need scores and what the expected one is
3
u/4fesdreerdsef4 400 Jul 25 '25
Yes, you don't need to take precalc in order to do well on the math section. Desmos consistently carried me through 90% of every practice math test I've taken, I have no idea why it's allowed but I'm not complaining
2
u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 25 '25
How do I learn to use it? And can I use it without underlying math knowledge?
2
Jul 26 '25
You need calculator knowledge, and you also need to know how the hell you solve problems. You need to know what you’re solving for and what the answers are supposed to look like too. So yes you need some math knowledge; some problems you need more math knowledge than others. Though Desmos does very much carry most people through the math section and I honestly have zero clue why they’d allow something that makes thinking about the math on M1 at least virtually obsolete, but it’s allowed.
1
u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 26 '25
How can I learn the math knowledge required outside of school?
2
Jul 26 '25
Plus when you take the SAT (junior year usually) it should be more like your studying should be review of content supposedly learned but at least introduced in the past, not first-time learning. This may not be your case however.
1
u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 26 '25
The PSAT is at the start of junior year though, and I was homeschooled for a while which was a different curriculum so a lot of the questions aren't familiar.
1
Jul 26 '25
Khan Academy (I’ve used the math section to prep slightly before taking the test before, it’s actually pretty good), test prep books, search up questions, watch YouTube tutorials, or just take the classes in school. It’s really just some Statistics along with Algebra I & II and Geometry mainly. There’s no calculus on it.

I would suggest the opposite of what he did try to figure out everything by yourself and then learn desmos for shortcuts

u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Jul 26 '25
How do I learn the math concepts required to do this?
1
u/BarkingRambler 1540 Jul 26 '25
Really focus on the concepts, lots of online resources such as long form youtube videos, khan academy, chatgpt to help clarify doubts, 1600.io free stuff. This is going to be by far the most useful thing before being able to do just full practice sections and being confident.

u/Big-Effective533 Aug 17 '25
I took it in March while I was taking Algebra 2 (so around halfway through it) and I got a 790, but i was scoring 790s on my practice tests since Jan/Feb
1
u/Ok_Item_9953 1400 Aug 17 '25
I am getting 600s and I have completed Algebra 2 so it isn't possible for that to happen with me.
2
u/Big-Effective533 Aug 17 '25
I'm naturally good at math fortunately but what helped me was just doing every single hard question from the question bank. I marked every one I got wrong and did every single question again, doing the ones I got wrong first. After March, I've just been learning desmos to make it easier for a potential 800

my scores are fluctuating in the 1400s. im pretty good at math but not that good on english. i took bluebook practice test 5 and i got 780 math and 690 english. im mainly running out of time and rushing myself on rw module 2. im taking the august sat and im aiming for a 1550+. is it possible?
1
u/Zeeeyathesheeep Jul 26 '25
Just took my first practice test today and got a 1270 :( taking the August one too and aiming 1500s, good luck to the both of usss and I have hope so I think you def got it!!

1
Jul 26 '25
I’m taking the August SAT and hoping for a 1500+, and the September one and hoping for a 1550+ lol. If your math is that good, spend most of your time studying English, and focus on the areas you did the worst in (look at your score report breakdown). Then just review math weekly or something so you don’t forget it.
1
u/Usual-Ad-4613 1550 Jul 26 '25
idk how but i keep reviewing the same topics i keep getting wrong and im not improving much. for some reason im making wayy too many assumptions
1
Jul 26 '25
If you keep getting it wrong, you’re not learning what mistakes you’re making or you’re not actually understanding the content. Maybe you aren’t actually focused on the content whenever you review? I’m not really sure. Wdym assumptions?
1
Jul 26 '25
I got a 1300 with barely any studying and I basically threw like seven questions on the M2 math (thought I got the easy version for some reason and procrastinated…big mistake) so I think I have a pretty decent shot at a 1500+ in August after some studying and reviewing English.
1
u/Usual-Ad-4613 1550 Jul 26 '25
idk if ur doing this rn but i would use desmos as much as possible. its so much faster that way
1
Jul 26 '25
I am definitely using it on the exam, but if I’m not taking the test I prefer to manually answer questions for the most part. It helps with understanding the actual math and being able to solve problems I’ve never seen before. I don’t even know why they allow Desmos on the SAT, it feels like I’m cheating.

u/Pure-Percentage-4878 Oct 21 '25
ohh, i think it worked out for you. congrats. what did u do to jump from 690 to whatever u have rn?

u/Dr3xii Jul 25 '25
definitely possible to get a 1500 with enough prep but im skeptical about the 2 week estimate. if your first score was a 1400 maybeee but the khan academy math sections takes 2 weeks alone (active note taking) and the english takes an additional week. then you have to take time to refine your skills. id say 5 weeks is a better estimate, maybe 4.

I got a 1320 in 1986 or so. 1340 was the average entrance score for Harvard. NO idea how kids are surviving now, sad. I also took a bunch of AP tests which helped me party more in college (was a junior after my first college semester) which nowadays is mid (say the kids). I recall I took some achievement tests (they don't exist any more?) and did really well but I don't remember if they counted for anything or helped for college credit, not even sure why we had to take them. I got a 98 on the PSAT (no studying). I recall being asked to take an SAT in 8th grade and without studying whatsoever, got the national high school average. I became a highly paid medical professional. Its good to have amazing genes (my dad went to harvard). Not sure any of these really translates to being a great anything, just do your best.

u/No_Pay1738 1510 Jul 26 '25
I started off at 1180 and got to a 1510. However, if you set a goal for a 1500 (or around that score) in two weeks, you are already looking at it wrong. It took me and many others months of studying consistently every day for hours. There will also be test times that you won't be able to perform as well as you thought. Difficult achievements take time and effort.

u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 26 '25
Yeah, perhaps the title was a bit clickbaity, but it's as much as I studied. I don't think it should take over a month, though. When I see comments/posts like these, it makes me wonder: how exactly did you prepare? The SAT is extremely predictable with its question types, and simply practicing goes a long way. If you're confused, watch a couple YouTube videos to understand difficult concepts. I'll admit, this process was much harder for me on the reading section, but I got through it in the end.

1360 - I gave it twice and got the same score- 720 math, 640 eng and in the second attempt, 740 math and 620 eng. Honestly, I got 760, 770, and 750 on my math bluebook tests, so math is okay, though I am trying to get 800 in math. For english I am not able to overcome the cap of 640. My info and ideas are weak and craft and structure. grammar can be worked upon. I am trying to overcome them through reading but I just can improve. Any Help???

u/Somme_Guy Jul 29 '25
Yeah no. If you got a 1500+ in under 2 weeks you must either be extremely talented or already have a fairly strong grasp of the foundational skills tested on the SAT.
1
u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 29 '25
You should. It's designed for high schoolers, after all.
1
u/Somme_Guy Jul 29 '25
I somewhat agree, more people should have a strong grasp of these skills than there are that actually do, but that's just not reality. Because that is not reality, it's not reasonable to claim anyone can get a 1500 in two weeks of studying. All that achieves is dissapointing people who literally can't do that because it is not a realistic goal.
1
u/Firm_Visit_3942 1530 Jul 29 '25
I concur, but this subreddit is a bubble of extremely motivated students taking the SAT. If you have aspirations for a 1500+ score, you likely wanna go to a top school. And if your ambitions lead you there, you're probably smarter than the average person. That's why you see many people here start with 1200 and above, which is reasonable enough to improve to a 1500 in a couple weeks given that you study right. If your starting score is under 1000 and you have no foundations whatsoever, you're right; two weeks is unreasonable. However, in that case, you shouldn't even need to get a 1500, since you're probably not cut out for top schools anyway (no offense to those people).

u/Striking_Antelope_81 Jul 30 '25
I took my first practice test and i got a 680 rw and a 600 math. Ima try out desmos because I haven't been using it much, just for simple calculations and stuff. I hope this works. But the thing is, i don't know what to do for reading and writing. Im like the jack of all trades master of none. Seriously im getting like 1 question wrong for every flippin concept (theres like 6 or something). Its not like math where im doing bad on algebra

I’ve never thought to try to use Desmos for each of the math problem. This, along with the other tips you mentions, will be very useful.

I've learned every possible rule that could be applied to desmos to guarantee a quick and correct answer but its always those last 5 questions that get to me and drop my score really low (often advanced math and geometry/trigonometry) what can i do about this? is solving questions on the question bank enough?

So you said set aside 2-3 hours each day. During that time, should I just grind out hard practice questions from the question bank on oneprep? Or should I keep pushing through courses such as the Khan Academy SAT course? I guess what Im asking, is like which specific resource should I use during those hours I set aside? Because the skills you mentioned, I already know how to do them, so at this point I'm just trying to increase my score on practice tests.

yes, desmos is a graphing calculator. you are only allowed to bring a scientific physical calculator. https://www.desmos.com/calculator/

u/Hallaaaa_f627 Aug 14 '25
Hey, I just wanted to know — apart from the practice tests on Bluebook and the Q Bank, was there any other material or books you were using? If yes, could you please share them with me? And if you solved any real past SAT exams, could you send them to me as well?”

I got a 690 on reading and 600 on math. Really need to improve my math scores. Should I just watch some math section walk through and master regressions

A graphing calculator that you have full access to during the SAT.

agree with everything here (except knowing desmos and sum other math stuff does NOT fetch you an automatic 750+, you have to work a little more for that)!
trying to get that 1550+, RW is killing me dude, but i'll take your advice in mind!
